Forest had endured a difficult February, losing five of their six outings, but goals from Arvin Appiah, Anel Ahmedhodzic and Brennan Johnson saw the Reds cruise past Hull and leapfrog them in the Professional Development League table.

Another win tonight against the Clarets would see Holmes’ men rise to third in the league and continue their resurgent form.

Our man Barry Cooper is live at Curzon Ashton’s Tameside Stadium to bring you full coverage from the the 7pm kick-off.
